If you are a Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel or decision-maker in the Legal Department, here are some reasons why you should consider a partnership with our Legal Recruiting Team: 1. We specialize in this type of recruitment. Your in-house recruiter probably wears a lot of hats, but 99/100 times, Legal is not a specialty of theirs. 2. We have lawyers and JD's on the Team who understand the language and complex landscape. They know where to look, what they are looking for and how to attract the relevant talent. 3. Specializing allows us to have a pulse on the market. For instance, what are candidates looking for? Why and in what scenarios are clients are losing talent at the offer stage? What does a competitive offer look like?

As always, great data coming from the folks at Firm Prospects, LLC. It confirms what many of us have been sensing for months - it is a tighter, stranger, and slower law firm market than we've seen in years. "Across all attorney tiers, the hiring of associate attorneys continues to see the steepest decline, with a total of 2,173 associates hired in the first quarter, representing a drop of 33% from the previous quarter and a 10% decline from the same period a year ago, according Firm Prospects." In this market, it is more important than ever to be strategic about your job search. From what you include on your resume, to which positions you apply to, every step requires careful navigation. If you are thinking about starting your search, let's connect! My team and I are always happy to help and support. #legalrecruiting #lateralhiring #amlaw100 #lawfirmjobs #jobsearch #hiring #lawjobs #marketintelligence
